I didn't. I just cut it to size. It's very snug.

I used a 6 inch hole saw bit. I'm very lucky because my dad is a tool and die maker and has very expensive tools laying around.

Here's a link to a similar style bit.

Can be mounted to a cordless drill. Just hold on to it tightly lol.

Also, make sure your plexi has tape/paper over it before you start to drill to avoid scratches.

Can I uses a piece of glass on top of the screen?, and remove it when I open the screen.
Thanks...

HERE's HOW I MODDED MINE. Now I've added some new stuff to the tank itself and put a bigger Ultratherm UTH under it but so far this is working great for Nibs.
